Discover New Vocabulary With a Firefighter Word Search!

Are you excited for Fire Safety Week? Are you kicking off a unit on community helpers? If so, you’re in the right place. This year, kick off the festivities with a fun Firefighter Word Search! It’s a fantastic way to familiarize your students with firefighter-related vocabulary and get them ready for learning about fire prevention. 

Encourage them to search high and low for the words in the Firefighter Word Search puzzle, as they learn about firefighters and the gear they use. This word search activity is designed for our upper elementary students and includes sixteen firefighter-related terms to search for in the 14 x 14 letter grid. Words are hidden vertically, horizontally, diagonally, and in reverse order for an extra challenge!

An answer key is included with your download to make grading fast and easy!

Because this Fireman Word Search Puzzle includes an answer sheet, we recommend you print one copy of the entire file. Then, make photocopies of the blank worksheet for students to complete. To save paper, we suggest printing this 2-page worksheet double-sided. 

Turn this teaching resource into a sustainable activity by printing on cardstock and slipping it into a dry-erase sleeve. Students can record their answers with a whiteboard marker, then erase and reuse them.
